[Hayley just shakes her head. There's no apology needed, he doesn't need to explain himself or anything that he's going through. She worries, but she knows that as long as he's coming to her in one piece that it'll be fine eventually.]
It's okay. [As he shifts to curl in closer, she moves to settle beside him. Her head tucks beneath his chin and despite him only having three inches on her, she still settles lower and holds onto him with her one arm as the other comes up to rest beneath her head. She takes deep breaths, hoping to get him to breathe deeper, but just comfortable beside him like this.] Just get some sleep, Isaac.
[She'll stay awake and make sure he falls asleep and then she'll roll over and text Derek to let him know that at the very least Isaac is safe. Isaac might get upset with her later, but for now, she'll be willing to risk it.]
[there's no reply this time. nothing but a quick tightening of his grip as an unaired thank you. having her there with him make it all easier. helps ease the pressure in his head and the pull in his chest telling him he should be back out searching already. that his father is still out there waiting for him to turn up, it's a distraction from the thoughts that've been plaguing him the past few months, but it's something he knows he needs. and having it come from hayley instead of his pack- it works.
it's with the calm of the room, the relative peace and quiet that it holds, that he finally lets his body take over and succumbs to the need to sleep. he's no good to anyone otherwise.]
